Still I Long *

Still I long for you

Used to dream love had come to stay
Now it seems I’m left with this pain
And the dreams I dream were all in vain
Still I long for you
Used to hope I’d find a way
A way to cope with this heartache
And to turn this despair I just can’t fake
Into a song for you

Since I don’t know how to reach you
And I don’t know what else I could do
I will turn my pain into a song
That my voice will carry to your ear
And the echo won’t die
Just as long as I believe my dreams were not all in vain
As sure as love flows in my veins
I hope that you’ll find in your heart
The will to give this love a brand new start
Even though there is not much chance left
For romance
Still I long

Still I long for you

Used to dream love would be strong
Now it feels like poison in my veins
For the dreams I dreamt just brought me pain
Yet this song’s for you
Just can’t cope with love gone wrong
Yet I hope for some lucky break
And to turn this despair I just can’t take
Into a song for you

Since I don’t know how to reach you
And I don’t know what else I could do
I will turn my pain into a song
That my voice will carry
And the echo won’t die
Just as long as I believe in dreams
As sure as love flows in my veins
I hope you’ll find in your heart
The will to give us a chance
Cause I still I long for you
